Video Game Chair V1.0

Crazy cheap and easy to build!

Today’s driving and flying simulations have enough technological firepower to suspend disbelief--but only if your mind allows it. To fully immerse yourself in a game, position your body exactly as if in a real automobile or aircraft. Sure, you can buy an off-the-shelf gaming chair, but they can cost several hundred dollars or more, and they won't necessarily match the ergonomics of your ideal vehicle. For the ultimate gaming experience, build your own chair to your exact specifications. It does not have to be difficult or expensive. In fact, it can be crazy cheap and easy to build!

Finished, painted, and with gaming hardware

Matt's Crazy-Cheap-And-Easy Video Game Chair is designed to cost about the same as a new-release console game, around $50. The final cost depends on what materials you already have available and what you need to purchase.

Gaming hardware not included in this cost. As if.

You should also buy the instructions for a paltry sum. I wish it were cheaper, but the production and distribution costs dictate the pricing.

I put a lot of work into the writing process and I doubt I'll even break even on this project, so it would be a nice gesture. Thanks!
